@bhandav: Nice pic. What mode do you use for the blurred background on the canon 1000D?
@manish: Lovely lotus.
@zibby: Nice cars, beautifully detailed. What make and scale?

Here's a 1:24 Scale - Mazda MX5 Miata .
No make mentioned on the car.

Do any one know of www.rickoricko.com, they offer 1:87 scale Vintage and Classic Cars. Is the quality good enoughf.

Hey Sidd vi: I mostly use mannual mode on my 1000D, and such blurred background is achieved by altered focus point and lower aperture value or F number, so that only the focussed object is sharp and everyting else is blurred.

Few more pics from my side:

Hi MustangMan, I bought the Ford at a shop called Nikko in Singapore. Cost me S$19 (about Rs 630).
